What, according to Hobbes, is the chief end of forming a commonwealth?
tester [92]

Answer: Survival

He therefore argues that it is important that humans create a commonwealth where a sovereign has absolute power over everything such that they can keep people from fighting over resources and therefore ensure the survival of the human race.
